The Sens roll into St Louis coming off the disappointing loss versus the Leafs. I don't think we'll see any lineup changes, and Condon should start in goal for the Sens, and it'll likely be Jake Allen for the Blues.

Who cares? The Blues kind of stink right now. Sens will win 5-2. That's my call.

One of the reasons they "stink" is Allen's play. Allen was pulled in LA and Hutton finished the game, giving up two goals, but the next two starts he gave up one goal in each game against the Sharks and Ducks. The only thing we can hope for is that Hutton will be tired. Otherwise he is a hot goalie right now.

On the other hand, they may think of Ottawa as a low-scoring team so they could try to use us to jump-start Allen. We'll see.

Has the starting goalie been confirmed?

Am I the only one that feels Hoffman would be better off on another line? I get that we are trying to spread out the offence but it hasn't worked that well it seems recently. We're missing on enough good players to make that work

I actually like that Boucher has kept the lines fairly consistent. Cameron and PMac used to shuffle them almost every game. Boucher is trying to ensure that the top 3 lines are each capable of producing offense.
